Jalapeno poppers used to be a favorite treat of mine before going gluten-free.
I used to always have a stock of them in my freezer. Fast forward a few years and I miss them badly!
But living without does not mean I have to miss out. Besides making them fresh, you know exactly what ingredients are in those spicy little guys!

Or you can use store bought gluten free crumbs to do the trick!

I have been really curious about air fryer since we try to eat healthier. We generally grill our jalapenos but this looks like an amazing option for us since we have celiac.
We LOVE our airfryer and yes it is such a great option since we can’t usually get safe fried food dining out! Give it a try!
I have wanted to get an air fryer for the longest time! This recipe makes me want one even more, but my husband might kill me with another kitchen appliance.
It is worth it, I love mine!

I’m making these tonight with peppers from my garden. I’ll add some cheddar to the cream cheese mixture, but what do you think about subbing green onion for the parsley?
